Creek Destiny Integrated vs. Current Aragon System

I have owned my Aragon 24k SP Preamp and 4004 MKII Amp for many years. My purchase decision at the time for these components were value and serious horsepower. I am now in search of improved sonic quality (on a budget). Connected to this system is a Cambridge Azure 840C and Sonus Faber Electa's - Kimber throughout. I have no local dealer for the Creek and would be looking at a 15% restocking fee if dissatisfied.

Respectfully interested in your opinions/suggestions.

I have an Aragon 2004 Mk II with a Conrad Johnson PV10BL tube preamp and couldn't be happier. Speakers are Magnepan MG12. I also had good results with a Bottlehead Foreplay 2.

I've seen many others using the Aragon 2004/4004/8008 amps with tube pres and maggies so I would say there's no problem there. You could get a used CJ preamp for a lot less than 2K to see if it works for you without jumping in with both feet.
